If you work in psychology in a research area without Registered Reports, you will see that the main hypotheses in papers are almost always supported. If your peers publish Registered Reports, you will also have access to null results, which should be very common. doi.org/10.1177/2515...

New publication with my dearest friend, @kenzonera.bsky.social!
We propose that multi-study articles can hardly achieve conceptual novelty and statistical consistency while remaining transparent.
Fulfilling two of these criteria considerably reduces the probability of satisfying the third one.

Glad to see that our research with @kenzonera.bsky.social and @slvdlv.bsky.social is robust!
Not very surprising, though: it was a conceptual replication, so not as risky as an original contribution (www.frontiersin.org/journals/psy...).

A new paper finds that replicability of social and behavioural science claims in COVID-19 preprints was 65.4% (this included a successfull replication from my own lab--Sternisko et al) www.nature.com/articles/s41...
This is just more evidence that research on COVID was actually quite robust.
